what if one knew

should one dare to look oneself in the mirror
would one feel to the real self nearer
that which would stare back clearer
liking oneself the emotion dearer.

or

would one see something too brash
that which one thought of oneself, with clash
not wanting or caring the real to rehash
preferring to turn away, feeling abash.

best

with certainty to know ones core
to work at characteristics poor
the guarantee be one to soar
and oneself better like, for sure.

to try

leave arrogance behind if possible
to be a student of life responsible
thus to grow and be successful probable
future prosperity and success colossal.
